AFC Rankings

I say this AFC Rankings AS MUCH AS I HATE TO SAY IT:
1.San Deago Chargers-They are in an easy div. the easiest in the AFC. And next season they finally get to smash New England at home. Next year I look for the Chargers with their easy schedule to go undefeated in their div., give Tom Brady and Bill Belichick quite possible their biggest blowout loss ever at San Deago and maybe just maybe win out all their games against the AFC East.

2.Indianapolis Colts-See Article and adding to that the fact that the Colts may have lost less in the off season then any other team in the NFL.
3.Cleveland Browns-The Browns needed linemen and they got them by trading for NT-Shaun Rogers and DL-Corey Redding. Dantai Stallworth may also be a pretty good free agent acquisition and I like the FA signing of CB-Fabian Washington he is a strong under achiever.
4.Houston Texans-That's right the Texans, I see them as a sleeper team next year. Since last season their offense was suvearly hurt by injuries and I like the leadership EX Pats DE/OLB Rosivelt Colvin brings to the table of the Houston Texans.
5.Jackson Ville-See Article

No Steelers in the top 5 eh? Well, to each their own. I think the Texans are a stretch...but I also appreciate the courage in picking them above the likes of the AFC strong.
I'd never advice anyone to pick a season's victory by means of observing how "supposedly" easy their schedule is. Teams rise and fall every year.
As a big homer, I've gotta go with:
1. Pattycakes
2. Colts
3. Bolts
4. Steelers
5. Jaguars

You, know something LZ, your right, the Steelers are good every single season. So for that reason, I am taking Jacksonville out of my top 5 and replacing them with Pittsburgh.
Also keep in mind that of all the teams who have had the easiest schedule since 2002 only 1 has made the playoffs and the exact same goes for all the teams who have lost the Super Bowl since 2002.

I believe I saw some stats to back that up on NFL Access last night. Something about...how statistically speaking, only one team in 2007 "actually" had as tough a schedule as its 2006 records indicated.
Go Steelers!

Chargers, Colts, and Steelers will smash the Pats next season. WHAT PART OF THE GIANT SUPER BOWL LOSS THE PATS HAD DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND. The Pats R 18* and DONE without CHEATING with that Giant super bowl loss on their back and aging defense + just look at how much they have lost in the off season. I'd take the Colts, Jags, Steelers, Charges, Texans and Browns next season over the 18* and DONE without CHEATING Patriot losers any day.
PS.
Lindy's Magazine has always complimented the Pats on their defense every single year. For example last year they said it should be interesting how many good ways Bill Belichick can use Adalias Thomas. But not this year. They have said that if it is defense that wins championship then the Pats don't have it. And I think they are right on the money since the Pats lost the super bowl.
I also look at the Celtics NBA championship win and the Pats Super bowl loss as the start of a new yearly championship contender in Boston (the Celtics) and the end of an old (the Patriots).
Also keep in mind that since 2002 of all the teams who have had the easiest schedule only one has made the playoffs and the same goes for all the teams who have lost the super bowl. Also no QB on a team with 3 or more superbowls under their belts has ever returned to a super bowl after losing one. Just look at Brett Favre.

all i know is my team can't seem to beat NE. sort of like the colts not having much luck with the chargers of late.
the fact is NE has the easiest nfl schedule this coming season and they're still atop the afc until somebody can knock them off. trust me, i hope you're right and they have a horrible season because i'd rather see ANY other afc team at the top besides NE and of course oakland.
